Katrina Allen
We have 6 acre, non commercial, dry grown cherry and truffle farm with an extensive and productive garden around the house, in the inner Adelaide Hills. Our house is adjacent to a small town (Uraidla) which is on a weekday bus service to Adelaide. Adelaide CBD is about 30mins by car from here. The edges of the property are scrub which we are gradually restoring with selective weeding and some planting.so some of the work is farm work and some native vegetation restoration.

We have 3 small friendly dogs and 2 cats who stay in the house and 6 chooks.
